Ninth invocation; video

[betel_geuse]

Betelgeuse floated above a bed. He didn't know who owned the bed, but he was borrowing it for a bit. He tended to switch which house he was haunting, whenever he got bored. A big danmaku event was coming up, but it was taking time. Idly, he flipped through the videophone, reading and playing people's messages and randomly throwing out comments. After a while, he began his own video.

"YO, GENESSIA...and well, the other places, too. How are you babes and fellas getting on? Gotta admit, your resident Ghost with the Most is a tad bit bored. NOW. I could just come up with some brilliant scheme to prank you all, because honestly, you need some shaking up. I've been listening in on some of your messages on this thing, which is the best gossip hotline I've ever seen, I gotta say.

Where was I?

Ah, yeah, yeah, anyways, it's just too damn quiet, know what I mean? SO, instead of pranking you, I'll give you a chance to distract me. I don't care how. JUST MAKE SOME DAMN NOISE ALREADY!"

"Uh, I haven't really been paying attention, sorry. Mid-week, I think," Betelgeuse answered. "I wouldn't destroy the caves, just remove a few stones...here and there. You tell me where the uglier caves are and I'll leave the prettier ones alone, how's that?"

This time she's showing him a grouping of minerals that look like mushrooms. After a long pause of pretending to consider his proposal... "No." And a soft chuckle. "I did the work, I reap the rewards."

"Well, of course, I don't expect you to dig out rocks for me," Betelgeuse gritted out, impatiently. "I just want a hot tip on where I can dig up a bit of wealth on my own! Come on. Be a pal!"

"What do you need wealth for? You're dead." Bridget isn't exactly one to beat around the bush if she didn't have to. Beware though, she has the time to spend and the experience to actually do so.

"Hey, just 'cause I'm dead doesn't mean I can't want a bit of dough to spread around. There's plenty of stuff I could buy!" Betelgeuse protested. "Alcohol for starters, maybe some new threads."

Alright... [A thoughtful pause.] There's a good market for copper anywhere with a telephone, and a large junk yard in Nova. Without concern for tetanus it shouldn't be difficult to start collecting something worth selling.

"You're in a pretty cave with gems and you're sending me to a junk yard? That's harsh, babes."
